We need to collectively rethink describing Israeli settlers as “terrorists.” The label was designed to serve imperial interests, and it implies that settler violence is an aberration, not a systemic part of Zionist settler colonialism.

The violence of apartheid across the West Bank isn’t just physical. Israel relies on constant psychological warfare to terrorize rural Palestinian communities and make them live with the perpetual dread of army raids and settler pogroms.

Residents across five towns in Vermont voted to cut ties with Israeli apartheid making the state the first in the country where municipalities have voted to cut economic ties with Israel.

In November, the Oxford Union held a debate on the topic of Israeli apartheid and genocide. It sparked a backlash from Zionists and even an investigation by British police. A speaker and audience member who attended tell us what really happened.

Jimmy Carter, who died on Sunday at the age of 100, was attacked for telling the truth about Israel. Many Democrats joined the smear campaign.

Often overlooked, Israel’s intentional system of economically fragmenting and dispossessing Palestinians is an essential part of its plan to ethnically cleanse the land and deny Palestinian liberation.

The International Court of Justice declared Israel’s occupation of the West Bank and East Jerusalem is unlawful, the settlements must be evacuated, and Palestinians must be compensated and allowed to return to their lands.

Israel’s inability to solve the Palestinian issue except through apartheid and massacres has fostered a fascistic and racist political culture in the country. But this truth must be kept from Americans, because it would discredit Zionism and put politicians at odds with the Israel lobby.

Middle East scholars see anti-Palestinian bigotry as far more of a problem on campuses than antisemitism. And they say administrations are wildly out of touch with student and faculty sentiment on protests of the war.

The unfolding genocide in Gaza is the latest chapter in Israel’s attempt to remove Palestinians from their land. All those calling for a ceasefire should join in the longer-term efforts to dismantle Israeli apartheid.
